You see, in the upside-down world of the UN, countries like China, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are recognized as de fenders of human rights -- holding coveted seats on the council. President Bush refused to join this farce, but the Obama gang naturally jumped right on board.
So on Friday our nation faced its Periodic Universal Review, where UN officials, enemy states and left-wing activists offer a public indictment of America.
Among the violations they've outlined:
* Covert CIA operations.
* Cops with Tasers.
* America's federalist system.
* The decades-long economic embargo of Cuba.
* Gun-control laws, as in the lack thereof.
* The continuing imprisonment of confessed cop-killer Mumia abu-Jamal (born Wesley Cook).
* And, of course, that hardy perennial, the infamous detention facility at Guantanamo Bay.
In particular, Iran, Cuba and Venezuela joined together to bash Washington for its alleged abuses -- an amusing case of inmates in charge of the asylum.
Not so funny is the fact that the Obama administration is taking their indictments quite seriously.
How much do we give to the U.N.? It's gotta end. We need that money to close Gitmo and build another one somewhere in the midwest.
